    You do understand they are two different things fool, don't you?

    This is like me saying:


    My dad is fat. Thin.

    My car is red. Green.

    My opponent got floored. Not floored.

    MW's brain is active. Inactive.

    Pacquiao has more fans proportionatly in Asia, than Floyd does in the US. Floyd isn't even very popular as a personality in the US. Never mind numerically, about 4 billion people live in Asia.

    Its a question of geography. Pacquiao would still sell far more in asia, where he is a legend, than Mayweather or any American fighter in fact. Not everyone in the Philippines or China is poor, they have a middleclass. Also, in terms of popularity there is no contest. One could say some rich white people pay to watch American fighters, but different regions have their own popular sports stars.

    No, not remotely.


    But I bet this does. :smoke

    Your now legendary lack of intelligence is about to be exposed before your very eyes yet again.

    On page 1 of this thread:

    Of course it is. Im just making another point to *******s.


    Floyd is more popular. The media spins Pacquaio as being more popular, the American media certainly prefers Pac over floyd, but Floyd comes out on top.


    Its an interesting subject. Why despite Floyds lifestyle choices, his bad guy image, does the public at large, continue to give him the thumbs up when he fights?

    Unfortunately for him, not with the people who vote for the official Fighter Of The Decade award. :D

    Are you the same guy who said that "floored" didn't mean hitting the floor, and that said you were not "inactive" when you're not fighting? :think

    I.e the media.

    When it comes to actually measuring popularity, Floyd wins in pay per view buys.

    when it comes to measuring who people believe is the better fighter, Floyd wins here as well, as to why Vegas sets him as the favorite.

    Yes, but you can't be "lower middle class and working class", which is what you wrote.

    Seriously what is wrong with you, are you a famous ESB mongtard? :lol:

    Most boxers and even sports stars are from deprived backgrounds. Devon Alexander, Victor Ortiz, Bernard Hopkins - all had tough upbringings. There are many stories of fighters overcoming the odds and adversity, I wouldn't say Mayweather's is one of them. He had his father and uncles to open doors in the boxing world.

    The Mexican and Puerto Rican fighters generally grew up in far tougher environments than most american boxers. Duran was a streetfighter at the age of 10.

    But when it matters, Pacquiao wins. That's why he was the official Fighter Of The Decade. :smoke

    If Floyd is ghetto then where the **** did Pac come from? Some piece of cardboard in Saranghani province? Pac experienced disadvantages that Mayweather could never dream of, never had an accomplished or pushed amateur career, never had world class teachers from the start in his father or uncles?

    No ****ing comparison
